twelve years following the blow upon that organ.
Irish patient subsequently died of brain disease.
In another case the ear became infamed and the
hearing very much impaired. In another case the

was the leader of gang that arrested ex-

hands of this administration. He will
bring discredit ON the administration If

''What is the purpose of naval officers
speaking disereditably of the proposed i'm
proyements at the yard, and especially of
of the new ordnance buildings?" asked the
Sun representative.
."In my opinion" said the gentleman,
''our ordnance officers do not want the
shops completed during this administration
if they can prevent it. IL looks as if Cap
tain Sicard desires to retard the work as
much as possible by throwing every Obsta-
Gle in red-tape style in the way of Super
intendent Pugsley, who is a Democrat.
Mr.. Pugsley is an expert at his business, and
is laboring hard to carry out the desires OF
Secretary Whitney, but is thwaEted by 81

intention is to force Pugsley to the wall, as
they attempted to do with Cochran, and
compel him to resign. Unless Secretary
Whitney comes to his rescue in positive
manner the ordnance buildings will not be
completed under his administration. What
| have said is really the status ofthe Demo
cratic party in the Washington navy yard. "
